Elon Musk, the billionaire behind Tesla and SpaceX, lashed out at the political left during a virtual address to a massive freedom rally in London, labeling them “the party of murder.”
The remark was highlighted Sunday morning by the Elon Clips account on X.
“…You see how much violence there’s on the left with our friend Charlie Kirk getting murdered in cold blood this week and people on the left celebrating it openly, the left is the party of murder and celebrating murder,” Musk said in his exchange with British activist Tommy Robinson.
“Let that sink in for a minute,” Musk continued. “That’s who we’re dealing with here. That is who we’re dealing with.”
His appearance came via video link on Shabbos, broadcast to the crowds attending Robinson’s “Unite the Kingdom” rally and march. The demonstration drew more than 110,000 participants who were protesting immigration policies and speech restrictions.
Musk warned the audience that more unrest could be expected from the left.
“Violence is coming,” he declared. “You either fight back or you die.”
Coverage of Musk’s words in The Hill cast doubt on his assertion that people aligned with the left were “openly” celebrating Kirk’s killing in Utah.
Still, Breitbart News has pointed to multiple cases of such celebratory reactions, some of which have led to individuals losing their jobs across different industries in the United States.
Robinson, whose legal name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, has long been a controversial figure in Britain. Frequently described by critics as “far right,” he has spent years leading activist campaigns and has been incarcerated on numerous occasions for offenses tied to his political activity.
Throughout his video appearance, Musk’s commentary repeatedly sparked cheers. He railed against the “woke mind virus,” denouncing its impact on speech and immigration policies.
He did not hold back in criticizing Britain’s leadership.
“I really think that there’s got to be a change of government in Britain,” Musk asserted. “We don’t have another four years, or whenever the next election is — it’s too long. There’s got to be a dissolution of parliament and a new vote held.”
The Guardian, reporting on the gathering, described it as “one of the largest nationalist events in decades.”
